You might be a Republican if...PART 2
A little too much Democrat bashing going on in here..time to even the score... all you lefties like me- ENJOY!!!
If you believe the government should stay out of the church’s business, then believe in faith based initiatives, you might be a Republican. If you believe Saddam Hussein needs to be bombed, but that Mubarak and Musharif need American aid, and China needs most favored nation trading status, you might be a Republican. If you believe Machiavelli was right, you might be a Republican. If you believe that the government is violating our rights, then support the Patriot Act, you might be a Republican. If you believe that deficits are bad, but pass tax cuts without corresponding program reductions, you might be a Republican. If you believe that we are fighting this war to defend American values, then want to hang all the war protesters, you might be a Republican. If you believe in the right to keep and bear arms, but want to destroy Iraq and North Korea for the weapons that they possess, you might be a Republican. If you think mentioning Buddha or Mohammed in schools violates the separation of church and state, but want the kids to keep pledging allegiance to a nation “under God”, you might be a Republican. If you do not believe in a “vast, right wing conspiracy,” but DO believe in a “vast left wing conspiracy”, you might be a Republican. If you believe that television news is biased and left wing, but believe that Rush Limbaugh and Micheal Savage are fair and balanced, you might be a Republican. If you believe Donald Rumsfeld is sane, you might be a Republican. If you believe that Clinton was immoral because of his affair with the office staff, but believe Eisenhower was a great man despite his affair with his secretary, you might be a Republican. If you think it was unfair that Lincoln got shot, but great that Kennedy got shot, you might be a Republican. If you STILL think it is all Clinton’s fault, you might be a Republican. If you believe that John Ashcroft is really interested in justice, you might be a Republican. If you believe Texans riding around in armed pickup trucks are just expressing their freedoms, but Afghans riding around in armed pickup trucks are a grave threat to America’s freedom, you might be a Republican. AND a redneck. If you believe anything coming out of Paul Wolfowitz’s mouth, you are seriously deluded, plus maybe a republican. If you believe that Bush prefers war to diplomacy because it is easier to spell, you are almost as cynical as me. If you believe that anyone who can see through the steaming fetid pile of bovine excrement that passes for GOP rhetoric is a liberal, you might be a Republican. If you believe it is worth destroying a 225 year old alliance with France just to smash a petty two-bit tyrant, you might be a republican.

What are you if you're not Republican but don't think that your post is remotely funny?

As for me I definitely lean heavyly ot the rights. Yet I can laugh at some of the humor against republicans. Some because I see some truth and some because it appears to be ridiculously unfounded crtiticism. Everyone is going to be a little different though. But I would hate for our politics to be solely or even majorly deteremined by the sense of humor that we had in receiving political jokes.

Yes, not even my sense of humor finds that funny. While Kennedy was far from perfect, I wouldn't have wished any president get shot. Not even Clinton who I detest. I was in Washington walking back to the White House from the Washington Monument when that wacko pulled the AK 47 out and started blasting the White House. And I would have jumped the Wacko and kicked his @$$ if I had been closer. Whether you like the man in the office or not, you still need to respect the office. And I remember in high school how a lot of kids were joking and cheering when Reagan got shot and how sick I felt about it.

RE:You might be a Republican if...PART 2
I didnt say every one of the quotes had to be funny did I??? I agree many are not funny- but that does NOT mean some Republican dont feel that way..I believe it to be true with SOME, not all republicans..Of course no one in their right mind would admit that they feel that way- but some DO

RE: You might be a Republican if...PART 2
Yes some do...and some liberals have some pretty sick viewpoints as well. The political spectrum is not a straight line with liberals at one edge and conservatives at the other. It is a circle, and the farther you go in both directions, the more things begin to look alike.

RE: You might be a Republican if...PART 2
I am thinking what Psychedelic said.
With liberals or conservatives, in the end always the US get what they want. Isn't it the same thing than the Psyc's circling political spectrum?

your last list was funnier.
If you're not trying to be funny, you're trying to be mean. And that's no fun. |

RE:You might be a Republican if...PART 2
I took one of those test one time.
It said I was authoritarian/borderline fascist. I'm not even kidding, this is how I scored. What a kick in the teeth.

 Those questions are biased. They force choices when intermediate answers are realistic. I am too far left and south. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] |

 Thats odd, I've taken a few of these tests and usually I'm on the right wing side

 I don't know if they consider keeping or repealing drug laws or immigration constraints a matter of regulating personal/moral issues. To me they are definitely economic/security issues. |
